Goals
We're trying to look ahead at the big picture for staffing Free Geek. Our aim is to decrease the roller coaster effect.
One unofficial goal for Free Geek might be to increase the number of interns as compared to staff collective members. This opens up more opportunities for young people and others with job experience issues to build up job resumes. It also gives us staffing flexibility since internships are shorter term by definition and makes it more likely we can absorb an intern's duties back into the staff collective in case of financial shortfalls, avoiding other types of cutbacks and layoffs. This goal could be met by hiring new positions as interns (when we expand staff as we can afford it), or by converting existing staff positions to internships (as staff collective members leave). Of course, this can only be done where appropriate. We do not want to require or expect an intern to do collective level work.
Possible Staff Positions
Over the years, people have proposed various jobs that we could -- if we were rich -- hire for, either into the collective or as interns. Here are some of those ideas:
- Recycling Program Coordinator Job Description
- Self explanitory
- Office Coordinator
- Oversees paperwork, bookkeeping, and reception duties.
- Systems Admin
- Liaison with ASS, monitor and maintain systems and software, manage technical emergencies.
- Receiving Intern
- Keep receiving flowing and make sure that volunteers both learn and help.
- Testing Intern
- Keep basic and advanced testing flowing and make sure that volunteers both learn and help.
- Nonprofit Assistance Program Coordinator
- This is a successor to the Collaborative Technologies Coordinator collective position. See NAP and Nonprofit Assistance Program Proposal for further information.
- Sales Exploratory Intern Job Description
- Figure out systems for increasing sales. Good communication skills. Not as much as a technical position.
- Reuse Exploratory Intern Job Description
- Manage flow of donated "oddball" gizmos and ensure maximum reuse. This person might make sure that people and organizations who want oddball hardware (that Free Geek doesn't need elsewhere) are enabled to get it through the store, a grants program, or even something like the adoption program. Establish procedures for a these programs, streamline processes, and recruit volunteers. Help determine viability and need for a staff position.
- Printer Exploratory Intern Job Description
- Establish procedures for a printer program, streamline processes, and recruit volunteers. Help determine viability and need for a staff position.
